A cranky old spoonbill down at the swamp has got so
disgusted with the cricket that he has stopped eating. As the prospects
are bleak for the continuing cricketing year, his 2 sons thought he might not
survive it without a bit of force feeding. Well, that’s the only
way I can interpret the scene below.
For those interested in photography this snap was taken with
a battered old Canon 500 FD manually focussing lens with a 2x extender and a
digital adapter for a 40D body. Used necessarily ‘wide open’ (f.8 and a
bit), speed was manually set at 1/500 sec. The image was only very
slightly cropped.
